The Classic Movies Weekly Newsletter
July 14, 2008


This is the first issue sent on Monday evening instead of Sunday
morning. We will be keeping to this schedule from now on. Also, due to
some minor surgery, any emails sent to me after July 17 may not be
answered right away. I also recommend that if you're planning to
order from Free Movies on DVD that you hold off until after July 20.

This week: Updated tributes to Barbara Stanwyck, Ginger Rogers and
James Cagney.

This coming week we celebrate birthdays for living legends Polly
Bergen (July 14, age 78), Dale Robertson (July 14, age 85), Donald
Sutherland (July 17, age 74), Lola Albright (July 20, age 83), Pia
Lindström (July 20, age 70), and Paul Wendkos (July 20, age 86). Check
out our birthday calendar:

--------------- New/Updated Features --------------

**A Tribute to James Cagney**
Jimmy would have been 109 years old this year, and probably still
tough as nails. For somebody who played so many hoods and tough
characters during his career, Cagney was a truly nice guy.

**A Tribute to Ginger Rogers**
She was so much more than Fred Astaire's dancing partner, and she
would have been 97 years old on July 16, 2008. A salute to the one and
only Ginger.

**A Tribute to Barbara Stanwyck**
Known to her friends (and there were many) as Missy, Barbara Stanwyck
was one of the most talented and generous actresses who ever graced
the silver screen, with a career which stretched from pre-Code days to
a modern television series, and never once faltered.

**A Tribute to Milton Berle**
He was known to millions as "Mr. Television" at the dawn of the TV
ear, but he was also a popular movie actor for over 80 years.

**A Tribute to Janet Leigh**
The actress appeared in over 60 theatrical films and TV movies, but
was best known for her starring role in Hitchock's "Psycho."

**A Tribute to Olivia de Havilland**
Celebrating the 92nd birthday of the well-liked leading lady who is
best known for a supporting role and who successfully fought the
studio system in 1943.

**A Tribute to Susan Hayward**
Susan Hayward was born in poverty, received her first Oscar nomination
after 10 years as an actress, got four more before finally winning
one, then died of cancer at the age of 58. She fought every step of
the way, and gave us many memorable performances.
